If you are searching for a discontinued Fashion Fair Fast Finish Foundation Stick shade, the original shade name and number are the best place to start. This guide covers Almond 4622, Tan 4623, Mocha 4636, Topaz 4631, Honey 4660, Bronze 4640, and Ebony Brown 4665, with practical tips for comparing a vintage shade to a current foundation.
Important: discontinued shade numbers do not convert perfectly to modern foundation shades. Formulas, undertones, finish, lighting, and skin preparation can all change how a color appears. Use the comparisons below as a starting point, then test along the jawline whenever possible.
Fashion Fair Fast Finish shade reference
Almond 4622: a lighter shade in the Fast Finish range. If you are replacing Almond, compare depth and undertone rather than relying on a name such as beige, tan, or medium in a newer line. See the available Almond 4622 Fast Finish Foundation Stick.
Tan 4623: a classic discontinued shade that collectors may find listed as Tan 4623. Start with products described as tan or medium-deep, but check the undertone and how the formula settles after a few minutes. Browse the Tan 4623 Fast Finish Foundation Stick.
Topaz 4631: use the original number, Topaz 4631, when searching resale listings because shade names are often reused across cosmetic lines. Compare a small amount on the jaw or cheek, not the hand. View the Topaz 4631 Fast Finish Foundation Stick.
Mocha 4636: Mocha 4636 is one of the most searched Fast Finish shades. When comparing it with a modern foundation, look at both depth and undertone, and remember that a stick formula may apply differently from a liquid. Explore the Mocha 4636 Fast Finish Foundation Stick.
Bronze 4640: Bronze 4640 can be useful as a reference point when comparing deeper shades, but “bronze” is not a universal undertone label. Check the actual swatch, packaging, and condition before buying. See the Bronze 4640 Fast Finish Foundation Stick.
Honey 4660: search using both “Honey” and the exact number 4660. If you are comparing Honey 4660 with a modern product, assess the shade in daylight and allow the formula to dry before deciding. Browse the Honey 4660 Fast Finish Foundation Stick.
Ebony Brown 4665: the full shade name matters when searching for Ebony Brown 4665, since shortened or incorrect names can bring up unrelated products. Compare depth, undertone, and finish carefully, and check the seller’s photos and condition notes. View the Ebony Brown 4665 Fast Finish Foundation Stick.
How to compare a discontinued shade with a modern foundation
- Write down the original brand, product name, shade name, and number. For this range, that means Fashion Fair Fast Finish Foundation Stick plus the shade number, such as Almond 4622 or Mocha 4636.
- Compare undertone first, then depth. A foundation that is the right depth but the wrong undertone can look less natural than a slightly lighter or deeper shade with a better undertone.
- Test on the jawline in natural light. Give the product time to settle before judging, especially when comparing a stick with a liquid or powder.
- Check the product condition. Packaging, batch details, whether the item is boxed, and whether it is new or opened are important when buying discontinued cosmetics.
- Keep a record of the closest modern match, but do not treat it as an exact conversion. Future formulas can change.
